Shown for Flour, and the Output
Increases CorrespondinGly.
In its review of the -four market the
Northwestern Miller will say tomorrow:
The more sanguine feeling in refer
ence to milling since the collapse of the
Chicago wheat corner has induced heav-
Ter running of the mills, the output of
last week showing a gain over several
weeks previous, while that of the cur
rent week will doubtless go little
higher. Last weeks flour production
was 121, 500 barrels averaging 20,250
barrels daily-against 1865 barrels the
preceding week and 140,S70 barrels for
the corresponding time in 1886. Two
more mills have been started since our
last report, leaving seventeen in opera
ton, and in the majority of cases they
are being crowded as much as is prac-
ticable with the prevailing warm
weather. The daily product is about
2l,00O bblS., and it is not likely to be
changed for the rest of the week. By
shading prices some of our firms have
sold quite heavy blocks of flour during
the week, patents being taken literally
for export account. Some of the mill
ers, notably those having medium ca
paclty, deplOre the action of the more
extensive concerns in cutting prices,
urging that by holding out short time
longer much better values could have
been secured. At the lower figures the
demand, both for domestic and foreign
use, is reported good by many of the
mills, though some, who are evidently
holding up quotations, say that the mar
ket is quiet and unchanged. The in
creased business done on foreign ac-
count is shown in the exports last week,
the amount reaching the highest point
since March, and patents forming con-
siderable ltem.n

ALL SORTS.

- Tip Salisbury yesterday sent to the
GLOBE office two old time newspapers
a copy of the Cleveland Herald of Feb
ruary 6, 1923, and copy of the famous
Harrison campaign paper, The Log
Cabin, of June 20, 1910. The papers af-
ford marked contrast to the dailies of
to-day, These old papers had no dis
play heads, no advertisements worthy
the name, and long editorials. News
papers have improved since the day of
''1ippecanoe and Tyler too"
This is supposed to be a reform police
administration-Journal. Just about
right. Supposed to be, but is it?
Of course Duluth is jealous of Mime
apolis, but is it quite right to try and
get even by shutting out our base ball
pets without a single run?
There are certain indications, vague,
but infallible, that the meeting of the
council tomorrow will develop some
thing of unusual interest.
Adj utant Ward indorses the Journal.

Another Phase of the Municipal
Court Contest.

court contest.
The first that has been heard of the
municipal court contest since it was
submitted to the supreme court was
the filing of several documents at the
city hall yesterday. MesSrs. Jordan
and Penny, the contestants, filed pro
tests with the mayor, the comptroller
and the treasurer, setting forth that
they were elected respectively to the
offices of municipal Judge and special
Judge of the municipal court, and
claimed to be and were such officers,
and they protested against the
payment to MeSSrS. Bailey and MahOney
of any salary due from the second Tues
day in April.
The officers applied to City Attorney
Smith for legal information concerning
the case, but he has not yet given an
official opinion. 1t is generally believed
the salaries will be paid Bailey and Ma
honey, and that Jordan and Penny can
recover from them. if the supreme court
seats them. There is aprecedent in the
courts for this. In 1857 Seagrave Smith
was elected county attorney and his OPP
penent contested the election on the
ground that Judge Smith had not been
a resident of the state the required six
months. After two years the supreme
court seated the contestant, who brought
suit to recover the salary. He was de-
feated in his suit against the county,
but afterwards won III an action against
Judge Smith. Considerable surprise
has been expressed that a decision in
the pending contest has not been sooner
reached, but the court is evidently
studying out the knOtty points involved.

A DETERMINED EFFORT
To Abolish the Flag-Car System
for Extensions.

The council committee on railroads
was yesterday lat home' to the repre-
sentatiyes from the Northeast Minneap-
oils Improvement association and the
Chicago Avenue Improvement associa-
ton, which came fully primed with
facts and figures. Secretary Goodrich,
representing the street railway COM
pany, was present and sat at the end of
the table, mildly regarding the indigna-
ton Of the citizens, who from the start
to the finish showed most warlike dis
position and spirit of determine
ton. Both associations demanded
the same thing, i. e., abolition
of the tiag-car system, and that
all cars on the Monroe street northeast
and the Eighth avenue lines should run
through to the terminus instead of only
alternate or flag cars. w. A. Gulick,
representing the citizens of New BoS-
ton, said there was more travel on the
line than could be accommodated by the
present tiag-car system, which provides
that alternate ears shall run out past the
barn. He drew a telling picture of the
needs of the citizens of the Ninth ward,
and showed that by actual count l 800
people travelled over the extension who
are often compelled to walk in as far as
the barn, who sometimes wait a half
hour or more before car comes along
and who suffer a dozen other annoy
anceS and Inconvenience. He produced
an estimate showing the extension
cleared 80 cents per mile for each car
daily. R. III. Graham was equally en-
phatic, and bristled with indignation
while a half dozen others made sharp
thrustS at Mr.. Goodrich, remarks about
monopoly, etc.
Prof. B. f. Knerr got up with long
piece Of paper in his hand, which proved
to be memoranda of a list of COM
plants against the street car company
as to the treatment received by the Chi
cagO avenue people. Little bob-tail cars
are crowded to twice their capacity, de-
lays, irregular schedule are experienced.
He showed by count made for three
days that an average of eighty-th three
trips were made daily when 525 people
on an average were carried into the
city and sol out beyond the barns.
Supt. Goodrich finally said he had
offered to compromise with the citizens
by running cars every seven or eight
minutes out on the extensions, or he
would run every car out on the extern
siOnS during certain periods of the day.
The company could not afford, and
should not be asked to run every car
out on extensions during the entire day.
The committee at this point went into
executive session, and concluded to
bring in a majority report recommend
ing that the company be required to run
all cars out on the extensions from
starting time in the morning to a. M,
and from p. N. to 10 p. IN. Aid. Hans
com will bring in a minority report in
favor Of compelling the company to run
all cars to the end of the extensions
